È TEMPO DI #selfhosting E DI PIANIFICAZIONE Sì, mi è arrivato lo stipendio
Allora, ciò che voglio farci con il serverino sarebbe:
1. Hostare i servizi che generalmente si fanno in cloud, quindi
1.1 archiviazione possibilmente accessibile anche da fuori.
1.2 Comunicazione e social metterei come priorità il blog/sito, magari peertube, e la newsletter.
2. Sicurezza (poi mi studierò la teoria prima di mettermici)
2.1 Un modo semplice per staccare il server dalla rete quando non mi serve, in stile modalità vacanza? Se c'è qualcosa per automatizzarlo sarebbe carino.

Perché questo post? Invoco il #mastoaiuto e #aiutosegreto innanzitutto per due cose:
-Considerate le esigenze, lato hardware, avete un'idea dei
requisiti minimi che mi servirebbero? Così da fare un acquisto sensato per il mini pc.
-Lato software, avevo già visto Yunohost, ma non tutti hanno il programmino lì...molti usano Docker, ma mi pare di aver capito che sia più complesso, specie come prima esperienza. Pensate che valga la pena imparare Docker? Miro sì ad un controllo della mia roba, ma ottimizzato e semplice, ho un tempo piano e l'informatica è
strumentale alla mia vita al momento, non è la mia vita.

Grazie in anticipo a tuttə
🙇‍♀️🌈

"Fixing a fatal git error when upgrading LiberaForms to v4.2.0 by changing my git config origin from Gitlab to Codeberg"

tl;dr: @liberaforms changed from Gitlab to Codeberg recently, and I needed to update my git config accordingly.

Written in case it helps anyone else!

Every new proposed legislation and every company takeover lately has been inching me towards the conclusion that self-hosting is not only just a good practice, it's a much more important concept. A thing that needs to be made as easy, understandable and accessible for common folks and the onus is on the tech community that cares about these issues.

Ppl of Mastodon. Please help educate the normies about independent, small tech and self hosting. Not only fancy stuff like docker/VS etc and home servers, but cheap shared webspace online, small CMS, wikis, favourite federated or OS apps, (mine are Masto, Lemmy, Grav, Jekyll, Ghost and others). Introduce them to what is actually out here. Try not to expect total purity! They want to be free, not join a cult 😎😇

Stop exposing your homelab to the internet! 🔒 There are much safer ways to get remote access.

I wrote a new guide comparing the top 4 methods for 2025:
✅ The Easy Button (Tailscale)
✅ The DIY Powerhouse (WireGuard)
✅ The Web Gateway (Cloudflare)
✅ The Sysadmin's Tool (SSH)

Looking for advice on #selfhosting a personal #LLM. I agree with the most people that Big Tech AI is bad. Bad for the environment and bad for digital sovereignty. However, I am not going to agree that the tools are useless. They are in fact quite useful, when you understand their limits and how to use them.

What would be the simplest way to host my own LLM for personal use. My PC isn't ancient, but it isn't necessarily modern either. Are we at a point yet where this is even feasible for the everyday person?

Have We Left Web Radio Behind?

Since my decision to #unplugTrump, I have consciously moved away from Spotify. Instead, I chose to use Navidrome as my personal music server combined with Symfonium as the client. This setup allowed me to rediscover my own MP3 collection — a treasure of gems I hadn’t listened to in years! And I can tell: I really enjoyed the feeling of reconnecting with my personal music library.

J'ai, il y a quelques mois, totalement écrémé tout le Web à la recherche de LA solution de stockage de #photos et vidéos persos autohebergeable et je suis donc passé à côté de #Ente que je découvre via un article de @macgeneration. Je n'ai pas testé, mais j'ai lu toute la doc. Et sur le papier ça le fait totalement. Autant dire que ma surprise est grande, très grande. Bref qui aurait un éventuel retour d'expérience concernant ce soft ? Merci par avance pour vos retours !
